Probably because the other 99H's had 20" barrels and were advertised as short and handy. I thought it would be cool if it had a 20" 300 barrel. I have a 300 T with a serial # that is real close to my 300 H. I'll check them after breakfast and see if they look like the same barrel. The barrel band on the H covers the barrel address but this is common with the 20" H's also.
